hello Spellscape -
most readers of this forum are located in North America
the bicycle is a model we did not receive here in the North America market as far as i know
it looks like the absolute latest it could be is ~1970 because of the transfers and head transfer
the handlebar stem appears dangerously high
AFAIK we did not receive any Motobecane models fitted with Altenburger brakes or Union U40 pedals
one spot you can check for a date is the Rigida SuperChromix wheel rims
there may be a two digit year date inside a small diamond symbol as here -
